Another game, another goal, and another record equalled - it's been an extraordinary season for Everton's Romelu Lukaku .

The powerful Belgium striker netted his 24th goal of a hugely productive campaign to move four ahead of Harry Kane in the race for the Premier League's golden boot in Saturday's 3-1 win over Burnley .

The 23-year-old has now scored in nine consecutive home games, and has plundered 14 in the process to help Ronald Koeman's men up to fifth in the division.

And it seems that Lukaku has a new record in his sights every time he nets for Everton this campaign - his 24 goals this season have seen him mentioned alongside Goodison greats such as Duncan Ferguson, Gary Lineker, and even Dixie Dean!

The goal was his 61st in the league for the Toffees since joining from Chelsea initially on loan in 2013, breaking the Scot's record in the process.

By reaching 20 league goals earlier in the campaign, Lukaku became the first player since Gary Lineker in 1986 to achieve the tally - and he remains on course to match the England legend's haul of 30 that season.

The Belgian's double in the 4-0 win over Hull on March 18 saw him become just the fourth player in Premier League history to score 80 goals before the age of 24, joining Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney.

Only Lionel Messi (15) has more than Lukaku's tally of 14 goals in Europe since the turn of the year - the Everton star is level with Bayern Munich hitman Robert Lewandowski.

Everton's Romelu Lukaku celebrates scoring his side's fourth goal of the game during the Premier League match at Goodison Park, Liverpool.

Lukaku's name is on the six-man shortlist for the PFA Player of the Year, and he will become the first player since Lineker in his 30-goal 1986 campaign to win the prestigious award, should he clinch the honour.
